Clare
I slowly strutted back behind the counter, remembering Coffee. Black. Passing Mika, but not before he could add in a simple wink. Mika wasn't exacly my boyfriend, but he wishes he could be.
As I grabbed a clean mug from a stack of five, I heard the bell ring, indicating a new customer had arrived. I turned around to see if he had happened to sit in my section, which included two booths, and three tables.
He sat in front of the dark haired boy I was fixing coffee for. I grabbed a near empty pot of coffee, and poured it and felt hot steam rise onto my face. A new song had come on, gently playing through the speakers as I placed the mug on a little saucer plate, and grabbed a napkin.
As I turned around, I wasn't shocked to see Mika staring at me with a full grin, but I was too see the dark haired boy staring at me, as the man who had just walked in was reaching into a bag, his attention never leaving his face, and talking fast.
He looked as if they were brothers. As I neared the table, I put on my fake, forced smile, that I did for every customer. As I bent over to put his coffee on the table, the dark haired boy's stare still didn't leave my face.
I went "mhmm" in the back of my throat to break the awkwardness. I looked over to who I thought was his brother, and realized that he was staring at me also. "My God." His face broke into a smile. I looked back at Mika, and he had a sharp eyebrow raised, and mouthed " What is going on?"
I shrugged my shoulders fast. I turned around on my heel fast and dashed away behind the counter. I looked at Mika with a bewildered expression. "Why was Alec Goldsworthy staring at you?"
He asked, taking a sip of his cold coffee I had fixed him 15 minutes ago. I looked at him and whispered "who is Alec Goldsworthy?" He looked at me odd. " Why dontcha know?"
He said fast with a giant grin across his face. "One of the most richest men in Degrassi County! His brother, the younger one, is Eli Goldsworhty. He moved here a month ago.
Dunno where he's going to school, but Ezra on the football team told me he's going here." He raised his eyebrows. "But that STILL doesn't explain why they were staring at me, does it?"
Then, I heard a squeak of a chair, and looked up. Alec was walking over to me, and he looked sickingly pleased. "Aren't you going to take my order?" He smiled, crossed his arms, and leaned on the counter.
He looked maybe late 20's. Mika looked like someone had just sneezed on his arm. He was leaning over, because Alec took his space on the counter. "Clare, i've got to go. Bye."
Mika quickly grabbed his jacket and dashed out the door. What made him want to leave? " Hi, i'm Alec. Has anyone told you, you have amazing eyes?" No, but what can I get you?"
Alec was very attractive, but had a cocky look to him, like he could make all the women in the room hang onto his arms. He look at me slightly annoyed. "Can I have a cup of coffee also, and your number?"
